The Unarguable Truth: How to Experience the Deliciousness of Your Realness

One of the uncomfortable truths about human beings is that telling the truth and saying what's real is very difficult. In fact, some of us believe that lying about our experience preserves trust and makes our relationships stronger.

 

In reality, this discomfort with truth is a discomfort with feeling our feelings and expressing our real emotions.

 

That in turn dampens our spontaneity, disconnects us from our realness, and robs our relationships of the authenticity they need to be strong and fulfilling.

 

It's impossible to truly BE WITH if we're not expressing our unarguable truth. So many of us have spent years shoving our emotions down, and that means we're actually living a lie with ourselves and the people around us.

 

Learning to feel our feelings starts with honoring what we're experiencing.

 

How do we learn to tell our unarguable truth? In this episode, we talk about how to open up about your feelings and why it makes for better relationships.

 

As people, we all feel and that's part of what makes us people. We're messy and we're structured - integrating those things is what makes us whole, not one or the other. -Sophie Chiche  

 

Four Things You'll Learn In This Episode 

 

-Honor your feeling state

As humans, we've been taught to lean into logic because unlike our emotions, it's neater and easier to control. Is that why so many people struggle to feel and tell the truth? How do we start speaking from discovery/experience?

 

-Give yourself a breath hug

When we don't let sadness move through us and we push down our emotions, it disconnects us from ourselves and it creates a massive feelings backlog. How do we start to unravel our feelings? 

 

-Learn to love with a spine

For those of us who are immensely empathetic, it's easy for someone else's emotions to overpower ours. How do we love others without abandoning ourselves?

 

-The deliciousness of being real

Telling the truth clears up the emotional debris and allows us to experience the full range of our aliveness. How does it make our relationships better?
